Move Favorites folder

[Guest]

Hi,
How can I move my Favorites folder to C:\Favorites?
Thanks

 

[Alan Edwards]

You can drag it there or....

You can change the value of Favorites in the Registry in these
two keys: (ignore the second if the value is not there)

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\Shell
Folders

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\User
Shell Folders

Thanks you folks,
but now that I have my Favorites folder moved to C:\Favorites,
how do I get Internet Explorer 6 SP2 to recognize it?
IE6 shows my Favorites as only one line: Links.

Hi,

Add /s to .reg via file types under folder options or use run:
%systemroot%\regedit.exe /s "<base name of REG file>.reg"
